As I said in my bio, when I was a young man I got to play with some VERY neat sports cars. This Ferrari 365GTB/4 Daytona was my absolute favorite; it was my daily driver for a month or so while we were rebuilding the motor of my '71 Alfa Romeo in between paying customer's cars. You can understand why it took so long... 😉

What accelerates 0-60 in ~2 seconds, has around 1000hp, and has a price starting at over a lofty 1/2 million? A Ferrari SF90, that's what! Get out your checkbooks, gents!
Not all plug-in hybrids are built for efficiency; some are built for speed. The Ferrari SF90 is one such counterexample, combining a twin-turbo V-8 with a trio of electric motors and a 6.5-kWh battery pack to spit out 986 horsepower in standard trim. The SF90XX models, laser-focused on race-track driving, get an extra 30 horsepower—as if they needed it—awarding the SF90 lineup entry in the four-digit power club. The massive power output goes to all four wheels with the front tires driven electrically. Double-X versions also have a stripped-down interior and other changes in the pursuit of all-out lap time. The standard SF90 is now available only as a convertible called the Spider, with a luxurious cabin lined in leather and featuring an unconventional screen-and-control layout. The XX can still be had in Stradale coupe form or as a Spider. Whichever version of the SF90 you fancy in your wild imaginings, know that the powertrain, aerodynamics, and chassis wizardry come together to make one of the best mid-engine sports cars in the world—Ferrari or otherwise.
The standard SF90 Spider comes packed with enough amenities to make it a satisfying pick, especially if you plan to keep to the street more than a race track. If you want to give this Ferrari a more customized appearance, you can select from a host of upholstery choices and paint hues. There are several different wheel designs, and the list of available upgrades includes carbon-fiber components, a titanium exhaust, a digital rearview mirror, and brake calipers in a variety of colors. Which one to buy? There’s no wrong answer.
With the SF90, power comes from a massively powerful V-8 and three electric motors. The twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8 generates a mighty 769 horsepower on its own, and the trio of electric motors provides an additional 217 horsepower. In the end, the gas/electric powertrain generates a net output of 986 horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque. Upgrading to the SF90 XX unlocks 30 more horsepower for a total of 1016 hp and adds a feature Ferrari calls Extra Boost, which temporarily increases power output to help regain speed when exiting a corner. Power is sent to all four wheels, making this the first mid-engine Ferrari with all-wheel drive. An eight-speed automatic transmission oversees the proceedings. Different driving modes allow you to tailor the car's handling to suit your preferences. Use the mode selector to dial up EV Only, Hybrid, Performance, or, last but not least, Qualify—a setting that allows you to fully exploit the car's performance capabilities.

1961 ging Ferrari erstmals mit einem Mittelmotor-Monoposto, genannt Typ 156, an den Start. Seinen Spitznamen Sharknose (Hai-Nase) erhielt der Rennwagen aufgrund seines eigenwilligen Kühleinlasses. Die Konstruktion von Carlo Chiti stach nicht nur aufgrund seines Aussehens ins Auge, sondern auch aufgrund des Speeds.
Bei sieben Einsätzen holte ein roter Renner sechs Mal die Pole Position und je fünf Mal den Sieg sowie die schnellste Rennrunde. Es bedurfte schon der fahrerischen Genialität von Stirling Moss, um Ferrari an einem kompletten Durchmarsch zu hindern. Trotzdem ging am Saisonende beide WM-Titel an Ferrari – allerdings war keinem in Italien zum Feiern zumute.
Der WM-Führende Wolfgang Graf Berghe von Trips startete beim Ferrari-Heimrennen in Monza von der Pole Position. Im Rennen berührten sich der Ferrari von Trips und der Lotus von Jim Clark. Die Folgen waren fatal: Der Ferrari schoss seitlich über die Böschung und brach auseinander.
Wolfgang Graf Berghe von Trips erlag seinen Verletzungen, der Titel ging an Phil Hill. 1962 konnten die Sharknose Boliden nicht mehr an die Erfolge aus dem Vorjahr anknüpfen. Wie es heißt, ließ Enzo Ferrari aus Wut alle neun Ferrari 156 schreddern und auf dem Ferrari-Werksgelände einbetonieren.
In 1961, Ferrari competed for the first time with a mid-engined single-seater, the Type 156. The racing car earned its nickname "Sharknose" due to its unusual cooling intake. Carlo Chiti's design stood out not only for its appearance, but also for its speed.
In seven races, a red racer took pole position six times and five wins, as well as the fastest lap. It took the driving genius of Stirling Moss to prevent Ferrari from sweeping the championship. Nevertheless, at the end of the season, both world championship titles went to Ferrari – but no one in Italy was in the mood to celebrate.
World Championship leader Wolfgang Graf Berghe von Trips started from pole position at Ferrari's home race in Monza. During the race, von Trips' Ferrari and Jim Clark's Lotus touched. The consequences were fatal: The Ferrari shot sideways over the embankment and broke apart.
Wolfgang Graf Berghe von Trips succumbed to his injuries, and the title went to Phil Hill. In 1962, the Sharknose cars were unable to match the successes of the previous year. Reportedly, Enzo Ferrari, in a fit of rage, had all nine Ferrari 156s shredded and encased in concrete on the Ferrari factory premises.
